Welcome to Monocacy Valley Montessori

Maryland's First Charter School

Monocacy Valley Montessori Public Charter School is the first charter school within the Frederick County Public School (FCPS) system. Attendance is open to all FCPS students entering Pre-K through eighth grade through a Lottery system held annually in March each year. The school's academic program is based on the philosophy and methods of Dr. Maria Montessori. The students, staff and families of MVMPCS are working together to create an enriching learning community. The first step in exploring a Montessori education is to visit our school on one of our monthly tours. We encourage you to sign up.

Our 2020 Vision is coming into "focus!" If each member of our community contributes $5, it will greatly increase our ability to apply for and receive grants for our school. Our goal is 100% participation! Send in your decorated hand print along with $5 to be a part of the 100%! We will be displaying all our "Helping Hands" during the month of May.
